To create a blogspot webpage...

Go to www.blogger.com.
Click on “Create Your Blog Now” – an orange arrow.
Fill in your personal information.
Password should be one you will remember. It can be the same one you use for Myspace or Facebook.
Your display name is your full name.

Be sure to click the “I Accept the Terms of Service” box, and then click “Continue.”
Your blog title is whatever you want it to be. Example: Mr. B’s Blog.
Your URL is your web address. It cannot have spaces. An example: http://www.snakeday.blogspot.com. This is what people will type into their web browsers to access your page. If the URL is already taken, choose another.
Click the “Continue” arrow again.
Choose a template, click on it, then click “Continue.”
Click on “Start Blogging.”

To publish:

Type directly into the text box…or paste from the word processor, and then click “Publish Post.” You may add a title (“Reflection” or “Persuasive Essay” if you want.)
Click “View Blog” to see your post.

If you already have a blog, but have forgotten the password:

Go to www.blogger.com and type your e-mail address into the login box.
Click the small question mark next to the word password above the password login box.
If you know your blog’s URL (the website address - www.snakeday.blogspot.com -) enter it. If you don’t, just reenter your e-mail address.
Type in the word they have given you.
Log in to your e-mail account, open the message from blogger, and follow the directions to retrieve your password information.

"One by one, the guests arrive - the guests are coming through." - Leonard Cohen

Welcome back to school! Though it is summer still, I will endeavor to make your first days back bright, fun, comfortable, and productive.

Check back here often for make-up work, quizzes, tests, pictures of Mr. Brugioni when he was in his awkward adolescent stage, links to stories, etc...
